If a child has just scored within the level 3 band does that mean I cannot deem them to be a Level 3 because they should be a Level 3b, or do the marking thresholds mean they are a 3b even if they have only just scored a Level 3?
I feel reluctant to level the children who have just scored a Level 3 as a 2A as they are much better than the 2A children.
I hope the above makes sense and thank you in advance for your responses.

It IS a tough call, but one of my criteria as a Year 2 teacher was how confident I felt telling my Year 6 colleague that a particular child would a definite Level 5 in a few year's time...
Any niggling doubts in the back of my mind meant they stayed 2A!!!!
